When Paul meets Noah, he thinks he s found the one his heart is made for. Until he blows it.

Boy Meets Boy- David Levithan
I really liked this book, it kept me entertained and wanting to read more. The story never slowed down, I never once got bored in this book and I didn't want to put it down and was quite different than my average reads. . It was a very funny book.
I did like the storyline and the characters. I really liked how the author put a spin on what the "normal"
I loved the main character, he was well written and made me laugh a lot. I was able to relate to him throughout the book and
I feel like a made a good friend.
The title is cute and the cover is kind of boring in my opinion, but I honestly can't think of anything that would look better.
I would read this book again, and I would tell my friends to read it.
I'd rate it a 4/5
